My 2003 Sprinter cargo Side sliding door lock remote doesn't work. I have to manually lock and unlock it. All the other doors will iock and unlock with remote. I have to do the hit button once for 'lock-unlock' the press button again for the 'lock-unlock-lock' sequence so many other owners experience.
I have not found the culprit-cleaned all contacts, sprayed lithium lubricant on locking mechanisms. The blue and the green wires to the actuator solenoid show power when I hit the lock button on the remote. No power shown in any combination of the other three wires. No power at the contacts on the body for unlock when pressing remote unlock.
There is a ticking like a clock in the actuator when the side door is closed which corresponds to the red arrow flashing on the dash lock control buttons. It is a small voltage varying 0.45 to 1.26. Does anyone have an idea what is happening?
Is there a way to test the actuator solenoid, as they are expensive to replace if it is OK.
BTW this forum is incredible! Bought this Sprinter last May with 280K. Love it! Mel
